Chapter 388: Chapter 387: Injecting the Virus

After he went to the bathroom, he pulled out a gun and several magazines from his clothes.

They were given to him by Su Mo from under the blankets last night, and he had wrapped the items with the packaging strip from last night’s bread, hiding them at the bottom of the toilet tank.

He returned to that familiar room that resembled a cage.

She was again asked to change back into the white wrapped dress.

"Lie down, we are going to give you a full body check," Su Yao and several researchers stood by, adjusting their instruments.

Lu Jin just silently stood in the corner, watching needles as thick as matchsticks being set out, his eyes growing increasingly dark and deep, black as a cold, bottomless pool.

Su Mo knew that she could not resist at all now, letting those expensive instruments connect tubes and syringes to her body.

Su Yao turned his head, "Lu Jin, you might want to wait outside."

The man’s aura suddenly turned violently ferocious, but upon meeting the other’s gaze, he eventually suppressed his anger and stepped out, taking a position in another lab where he could see Su Mo’s condition.

As the medicine was administered, Su Mo slowly drifted off to sleep.

Su Yao, holding a tablet, walked out, and someone handed him another tablet, displaying a middle-aged man in a suit with neatly slicked-back hair, "How’s the child doing?"

For him, Su Yao showed great respect, "There has been no breakthrough; compared to adults, the contamination rate in newborn blood has decreased, but it still can’t be suppressed."

"The data you guys retrieved from Jiang Zhou along with the test subject still isn’t enough?" the voice on the other end clearly showed annoyance and impatience.

At the mention of Jiang Zhou, Su Yao’s hand, holding the tablet, tightened instantly, remaining silent.

"Su Yao, I’ve invested a hundred million US dollars in you and the lab. How much has been lost in the process?! The senators are becoming impatient; if there’s no progress in a month, I will pull all funding. There are plenty of labs around the world, and I don’t necessarily have to fund yours."

"Understood."

As the call ended, Su Yao smashed the tablet in his hands to pieces, "Increase the dosage; I must have my War Queen back!"

In a world of chaos, Su Mo began to regain consciousness, standing in the darkness, watching her own body in reality, from the moment Su Yao answered the call, her consciousness had automatically received the external signals.

Without guessing, she knew it was the handiwork of the system.

One thing Su Mo was sure of was that her origins hid a massive secret.

[Warning, the brain has been subjected to a second intrusion, warning!]

Another points deduction for cleanup, Su Mo couldn’t help but smirk in the darkness.

[External interference from medicine entering, automatic blocking]

[Host activates defense mode automatically]

[Blocking failed, accepting automatically...]

[Separating... Starting to inject modified r-virus]

What?

Su Mo was stunned, then shouted into the darkness,"Are you injecting me with a virus?"

With no system intervention, the medicine took effect, and she unexpectedly collapsed into the dark Conscious Sea.

Having input a total of 300cc of venom, Su Yao finally awaited the major cleansing process.

He rubbed his hands together, his expression unusually excited; just as soon as she returned, all those condescending beings who dared to pull their funding, he would slaughter them all and completely take control here!

On the platform, Su Mo began to struggle violently without consciousness, all her meridians bursting to the surface of her skin, her originally fair body turning a near ash-grey, as if it was about to burst open at any moment.

The researcher who had been closely observing the data excitedly exclaimed, "The data is starting to climb, cleaning status is approaching 80%."

Everyone was visibly happy and excited as if looking at spoils of war, but Lu Jin could no longer hold back. He pulled out the gun that was hidden on his body and pointed it at Su Yao’s temple, bellowing, "Stop!"

He cocked the gun, forcing Su Yao to keep retreating.

Everyone was confused by his action, scrambling to press the alarm.

Su Yao seemed very composed, his eyes nearly obsessive as he gazed at the woman who was slowly transforming in the room and spoke with an almost perverse tone, "Do you know, when she wakes up, she will consider the first person she sees as her father."

Lu Jin’s hand faltered, then with even more fury, he grabbed Su Yao by the neck and shoved him against the wall, gritting his teeth, "You never mentioned that she would lose her memory!"

He had thought she would just be devoid of emotions, and selfishly, he had hoped she would feel nothing for Lu Chen and his group, so that he could rightfully stand by her side, be allied with her, even if she didn’t love him!

But the thought that Su Mo might lose her memory, and forget him, drove him to rage.

In the laboratory, the red alarm was activated, and a squad was dispatched.

Su Yao was not the least bit flustered, he turned his gaze back to Lu Jin, "You could consider this from another angle, the her right now is the most innocent. Whatever you tell her to do, she’ll do, even if it’s to die, she won’t hesitate."

Those nearly tempting words seemed to make Lu Jin understand something. He loosened his grip but still didn’t put him down.

"What do you mean?"

"Lu Jin, I’ll be her father, and you be her man, what do you say?"

Her man?

That phrase struck him like a bolt to the heart, electrifying him so much that Lu Jin’s grip completely loosened, and Su Yao fell to the ground.

He slowly put away his gun, his expression obscure with a faint look of expectation, "Are you serious?"

With an eager yet desiring question, Su Yao curved the corner of his mouth, "Of course."

Outside, the squad that had just rushed in to handle the situation was sent away by a single sentence from Su Yao.

"It’s nothing, keep patrolling."

Seeing the crisis resolved, several researchers started to seriously monitor the screens, "Doctor, transmission complete, War Queen is beginning the awakening mode."

Lu Jin moved next to the speaker, his brooding gaze fixed intently on the top of his head, "She has a name."

His intense murderous intent made the other shrink his neck, "Su.. Su Mo is waking up."

"Let’s go," Su Yao resumed leading Lu Chen back to that small house.

Lying on the slab, Su Mo, after a burst of pain, saw her senses heightened to the extreme. Don’t think she hadn’t heard anything, even trapped in the agony of the Conscious Sea, she had heard the argument behind that special wall.

To make her a puppet?

Hah.

[Host, for safety, please control your internal power as soon as possible]

[Understood]

Su Mo didn’t know exactly what the God Chef System had done to her, but one thing was certain, she wouldn’t lose her memory, and she had gained new abilities, greatly enhancing her leverage to escape with her companions.

It was time to use her acting skills.

Her eyelashes fluttered as she slowly opened her eyes.
